Hell 2 Pay 02:50
Pathetic fucking ego You don't practice what you preach And every word from your mouth Latches on like leech I wanna see your throne Crumble down to your feet One day it will be known That you're the death of the scene Get fucked motherfucker There will be Hell to pay Damaged and beaten mindset You think you're better than me I can assure you that you don't stand for shit And your friends are fucking fake Damaged and beaten mindset You think you're better than me Fuck your ego Fuck your revival You're no better than me You wouldn't know unity or diversity If it hit you in the fucking face
2.
Spit 02:50
I'm getting tired of holding my tongue Walked over and spit on I'm sick of being under the gun Why can't I count on anyone? Die in and die out Making sure the right words come out of my mouth Well I hope they're happy Cause I'm constantly judged By junkies, cheaters, liars Consumed by their pride Pointing fingers without looking inside Tell me how I'm a dissapointment Tell me how I'm a piece of shit You look at me like I'm the bad guy Just because I have my own mind What the fuck is wrong with thinking for myself? Not giving a fuck about anybody else You just sit on your ass Teaching your kids to hate To hell with your worthless name I will not do the same
3.
I'm a cold son of a bitch My soul has gone to shit Doing wrong against the world Is something I can't quit No masters in my life I can't control myself Walking life this fucking blind is like a living hell The things in front of me Taken to seriously The anger boils over The future looks so fucking bleak People die and life goes on I know tomorrow may never come People die and life goes on I know tomorrow isn't guaranteed I know you'll say I'm insane Just try to use your fucking brain Cause when the outcome Looks like now is my peak I lock myself in a cell And I throw away the key
4.
Fading Fast 02:27
Take a step back And look at your life It's all gonna be a mistake One of these days Are you doing what you know is right So follow your instincts Be what you wanna be Try your fucking best To see what I see Empty shell of a man That you said you never wanted to be All you ever used to talk about was your dreams Now you've walked away Like the people we used to meet Is that who you really wanna be Get your fucking shit together man You know that this is wrong So please fucking change And be the person that you were before The person you are now Has gave up and closed the fucking door
5.
Murdered Beaten down to a pulp We have to fight for what's right Injustice will reign no more Corrupt The justice system is fucked We must destroy and rebuild A revolution is upon us You swore to protect and serve But you just insight fear You beat and you murder The solution is clear We have to infiltrate and annihilate The only answer is chaos With no justice There can be no peace Pulling guns on innocent men Taking lives without a chance You punk mother fucker's Get fucked So yeah bet that shit I am fucking pissed off And I won't quiet down Until this shit gets solved Fucking bigots and traitors To the human race You're on the wrong side of history Learn your fucking place With no justice There can be no peace
6.
Tongues 01:50
Take away my suffering I prayed to a god who wasn't there He never answered my prayers He didn't fucking care God damnit You're just a sense of truth It hasn't gotten you far Because as far as I can see Your logic's fucking wrong So god show your face So I know where to spit Even if you are real You are a piece of shit Where were you at? When I fucking needed you You can't be found I guess you're not fucking there
7.
Tough Skin 02:21
I've watched you die every day of my life You created me Then you ask me to be something I can't even see Everyone talks about how their old man ran off But I never had that luxury You're dying right in front of me Growing up never fucking felt right This tough skin is too thick and fucking inconsistent Growing up never fucking felt right My tough skin is a blessing and a curse So please preach to me Give me another speech Teach me how to live my life Without even a hint of irony You are the perfect example Of how not to live life I wish I still had respect for you before you die
8.
Just a punk ass kid Never given shit I never gave a shit About a busted lip So take the swing I'll take the hit Then I'll get back up Don't give a fuck about my luck I will overcome You won't tear me down If you didn't build me up There's no impressing you If you never gave a fuck I've lost all my hope of what's yet to come I don't care what you want me to fucking be I'm gonna be myself till the bitter fucking end Outlive Overpower Overthrow Overcome Just a punk ass kid Never given shit I never gave a shit About a busted lip So take the swing I'll take the hit Then I'll get back up Don't give a fuck about my luck I will overcome Where I grew up me and my friends we learned to fend for ourselves the only way I survived is with my friends fuckin help
9.
Choke Chain 03:00
It's like a living fucking nightmare every day And since I can't wake up Right here is where I'll stay Do I decide to end it all Or do I tough it out I'm just another fucking face in an empty crowd The poison in my fucking veins is the only way that I survive I'm like a dog kept on a leash And this mother fucking leash Is the only thing keeping me alive Keeping me alive I don't know if it's worth it But I'll try my fucking best Cause it's all you can do In a life when you haven't got a chance Life is a fucking nightmare And we're all just trying to live the dream Life is a fucking nightmare But if we got each others backs We can make it easy The poison in my fucking veins is the only way that I survive I'm like a dog kept on a leash And this mother fucking leash Is the only thing keeping me alive Crossing off my list Dropping like fly's Covering your eyes I know that you're blind To the finer things The finer things in life CHOKE CHAIN
